title: [The use of collagen fleece (Tachocomb) in pancreatic surgery].
abstract: Collagenic fleece (Tachocomb) was applied to for hemostasis in areas of pancreatectomy and in the retroperitoneum after resection on the left side in 30 patients with necrotising pancreatitis, carcinoma of the pancreas head, and chronic pancreatitis. Diffuse hemorrhages in the pancreatic bed could be stopped by means of collagenic fleece despite disturbance of coagulation without additional surgical measures for controlling hemorrhage. The application of collagenic fleece was not necessary after resection, because of chronic pancreatitis.
